Aaaaah mark VN spoilers and episode spoilers differently plz I just read something I didn't want to read. D:

... anyway just caught up on this and I gotta say I'm loving it. Not the kind to engage in speculation so I'll just wait to see how it plays out, but I'm enjoying the character interactions the most out of anything else I'm watching this season.

Elestia · 2011-05-03, 20:38

Wow, please remove that spoiler related to the VN.

Suzuku · 2011-05-03, 20:41

If someone doesn't want to be spoiled then they won't open the spoiler. That's the point of spoiler tags.

Malkuth · 2011-05-03, 20:41

At least warn about those VN spoilers !!!

Anyway, it seems they get to use the lab's shower room

Like I said, I assumed it was a spoiler for the anime episode, which I'd seen already, not the VN. This is the thread for the anime, after all. Everyone in previous posts had been using spoiler tags to discuss episode 5, so I wasn't expecting something from the VN.

Uh, this is against forum rules, doesn't matter what you think. This is an anime only thread, VN spoilers are not allowed.

Loved the episode.

For whatever reason, this was the week this series all came together for me. I don't know anything about the VN (aside from that thoughtless spoiler above) but I was getting a little frustrated with the refusal to tell the audience anything of use. The revelations this week were just right - there's still a lot of mystery, but things are starting to make sense. We don't know the result but at least we know the game we're playing.

I've always loved the characters, and they continue to be a strength. I'm even starting to find Mayuri's "Do do dooot!" thing increasingly adorable.

Just finished episode 4 last night. Probably my least favourite out of all the episodes so far, but still good overall. I still don't really care for the way Okarin treats Kurisu and his over the top loudness is starting to become a little grating again, but it looks like we might be getting through this phase of his where he borderline treats her like crap for all that she is trying to do to help him get to the bottom of matters. Also the scene with the cat-girl idol was just plain weird and her whole character feels kind of out of place in a story like this. I thought for a second though they were going to play some sort of card-game and was all like, "Cool, I love card games!" but then they didn't show it and instead opted for more of Okarin's antics and I was just a touch disappointed that they didn't.

Anyway at least stuff was still accomplished this episode as it has been in every episode. Kurisu is solidly in the group now to try to figure this all out and they have the IBM 5100 so I assume things will start picking up pretty quickly next episode.

I was also a bit disappointed with episode 4 and frankly was quite bored. And I agree the scene with the "cat-girl idol" seemed completely out of place but I just keep thinking it'll all tie together soon which is why I have been sticking it out. Episode 5 was a little better and I want to know who Kurisu's father is and the part-time girl at Mr. Braun's (lol) shop is as coo-coo as Okarin!

Archon_Wing · 2011-05-04, 02:34

I gotta admit, this show handles moe and other fan pandering elements extremely well (ie. they're not interfering with the narrative.) It just works.

I could spam this thread about me being a Yukarin fanboy, but this episode was decent as usual. The dialogue about them screwing around is getting tiring at points, but it still makes me laugh at them. And they're finally getting along with the plot. Omg, jelly people. >.> The fact that this organization would run experiments like this greatly disturbs me and extremely fearful of our heros' safety.

And Kurisu, yea, just Kurisu is great. I wonder what's the deal with her and her father.

Does anyone want to test whether if you put your cellphone in the microwave this will happen?

Didn't get an alien head but i did get a metal Uupa and a spoilt phone. There was a name written on it though, can't make it out.

Damn, i hope this metal Uupa's worth it.

jeroz · 2011-05-04, 04:41

Does it work with smartphones as well?

Man I want a metal uupa

MeisterBabylon · 2011-05-04, 05:57

John Titor is someone's dad is another person's dad is Kyouma. I think about that's as twisted as Madoka is Madoka is Madoka is God is Madoka.

Kaos! · 2011-05-04, 07:05

One big difference in this episode when compared to the VN that may make a difference later on is the level of access required to access SERN's system.

Spoiler for Comparison with VN:

Kaos! · 2011-05-04, 07:17

And also...

The anime seems to be spoiling things even faster than the VN itself...

FlareKnight User of the "Fast Draw" Join Date: Aug 2004 Location: Canada	Spoiler for Ep5: I do wonder about Okarin saying they've beaten SERN to a perfect time machine. I mean when it comes to sending things back in time they seem to be on equal footing. The banana did as well as a person in going back in time. Of course it is rather impressive that they managed to make one without needing all the incredible stuff that SERN is using. Plus it is pretty precise with the timer and can send messages back in time. Okarin losing points for making Kurisu cry. I can't blame her for being startled since be blew up in her face and it was hard to tell what exactly was upsetting him. A pretty disturbing read through those reports. So many people killed and SERN tracking the reports on the state of their bodies. Of course impossible for anyone to see a pattern since the bodies are in such a state and it's so spread out over time and the planet. And yeah Kurisu in the lab coat is win . __________________ Anime-Evo

AzureWrath Senior Member Join Date: Feb 2011	Spoiler for theorycrafting: Someone must have already made a working something machine. In the very first episode Okabe was shown to have leap across a world. Also, Krisu already knew Okabe so that world may not even be the original world Okabe is from. So, somewhere along the line, I think there is a working machine that allows time travel/ world change. What I don't yet know is how Suzuha or Krisu fit together in this. Maybe Krisu is the one to make the machine?

Kaos! Senior Member Join Date: Nov 2007	One big difference in this episode when compared to the VN that may make a difference later on is the level of access required to access SERN's system. Spoiler for Comparison with VN: Anime: User access: Some emails With IBN 5100: Access to all jellyman's report VN: User access: Some emails Admin access: Access to all jellyman's report With IBN 5100: ?? Note that in the VN, Daru was busy trying to get admin access into SERN's system instead of working on IBN 5100(since he does not have the knowledge on how to use it and AFAIR, Okabe asked him to get admin access as a priority). Not going to say much on what will happen later on but might help to keep this in mind.
